From a friend.
Ice is to neuroanatomical consciousness what water is to primordial consciousness. Neuroanatomical consciousness arises from brain activity ...the ground of dualist thinking and framework through which illusion is perceive ... that which Pimps for Samsara teach.
Primordial consciousness is prior to the body, before the brain and the 6 senses ... it is non-dual and thus beyond One. Primordial consciousness is synonymous with Unborn Awareness ... and realized at the fourth of Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms.
“He who thinks of mind in terms of One or Many casts away the light and enters delusion” - Saraha.
Imagine placing some water into a twenty-cube freezer tray. All of the water is the same. However, when the tray becomes frozen there will be twenty individual, distinct, intricately latticed ice crystals, each one as different from the others as a snowflake or a fingerprint.
Neuroanatomical consciousness arises from this condensed crystallization through which religious and scientific empiricism conditions and sustains the delusion of sensory experience.
"Man's present civilization is erected upon the foundation of empirical knowledge obtained through his senses. In other words, the so-called "knowledge" upon which man relies is founded upon the evidence of his senses, or more simply, upon the nonexistent waves of motion of a nonexistent substance." Walter Russell.
"The probability that sentient beings can see reality as it is, is zero" - Donald Hoffman.
"The person who gathers knowledge through the six senses is categorized by the Buddha as a lunatic." Sabbe Putajjana Unmattaka.
The majority of humanity is unknowingly stuck in the Rhythm of Staccato ... Earth ... Carbon ... structuring ... Form ... the Particle of a Wave. The Second Rhythm is home to ego, and Mental Inertia.
"There's mental inertia ... which is a bunch of philosophy, and attitudes, and beliefs about yourself, about other people, about the world we live in, about groups of people...THIS ALL MUST GO!" - Gabrielle Roth
Gabrielle Roth's Terma treasure assesses Primordial consciousness for those who dare to enter the wilderness. Gabrielle spent her life making maps. She wrote, "...those who have dared to go into the wilderness, returning to tell stories and offer rough maps for those who might follow."
Today, most practice a mere technique from the suburbs and urban centers, not adventuring beyond the comfort zone necessary to enter the Chrysalis (the alchemical Rhythm of Chaos), Gateway to Unfeigned Surrender ... the Dance between Caterpillar and Butterfly ... the element of fire ... the metamorphic "Holy Mess" from which phoenices are born.
"In chaos we are rearranged,...chaos teaches us how to let go, how to move in the unknown, how to die and be reborn." Gabrielle Roth
Unfortunately, 5Rhythms® practitioners practice Chaos as it's the element of water. They don't have a clue what must be integrated.
Gabrielle Roth said, "Chaos is the rhythm in which we integrate our feminine and masculine energies."
However, using the elements in neuroanatomical: Earth, Fire, Water, Air, Aether, one will not know the Five Rhythms, nor uncover the Dance of Stillness, because the correct progression is Water, Earth, Fire, Air, Aether ... that is, Yin, Yang, Integration, Self-realization, Transcendence.
Neuroanatomical consciousness is like an iceberg ... the portion above the water is about one-tenth of the volume of an iceberg ... and has no direct contact with the water upon which it floats.
The subconscious, on the other hand, is connected not only to the Neuroanatomical consciousness, but also has an interconnected relationship with the Sea around it ... which isn't the water of Primordial consciousness, because the Sea is salted ... thus the subconscious 'mind' is a vehicle that interacts with both the Neuroanatomical 'mind' and the Oneness of Space-Time ... such as appearing to know the future ... like if you see an aircraft land in your dreams it may signify the coming completion of a desire ... or sometimes an impending future will be seen more directly, without symbolism.
Although Primordial consciousness ... Unborn Awareness ... is water, like salt water ... and is an ice cube in a frozen state ... Primordial consciousness is beyond Space-Time. And as such ... Primordial consciousness is unattainable in the first 3 Rhythms.
"Lyrical is the rhythm of self-realization." Gabrielle Roth. Not through practicing a simulation ... but by correctly entering the fire of Chaos.
